| Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! The main benefit or theory is to allow the component to move on its own, in other words in isolation. A lot of vibration is generated within the component itself. Even with amps. With Pods under the rack the amp excites the rack, which while isola... | |
| Why Do So Many Audiophiles Reject Blind Testing Of Audio Components? Marvelous! A fine example of self contained subjectivism, and not to mention self confessed expectancy bias, as you could ever hope to find.Outside those select reviews you agree with there’s not a single external reference point anywhere! Are you... | |
| EXTRA! EXTRA!! Millercarbon Proven Wrong!!! Read all about it! EXTRA! EXTRA!! A little context, the description you're relying on is written by some ESL noob not a user or audiophile. Also it is talking about this one version. Nobsound has a couple different versions of the same basic thing. This one is Corain or acrylic or... | |
| An unconventional approach to POWER MANAGEMENT Everyone has space to add a dedicated line. Even if it looks like every slot is taken, you get what is called a thin twin, or maybe it goes by different names with different brands. This is a breaker designed half as thick to allow 2 circuits wher... | |
| Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! I don't think amps vibrate on their own, do they?They do. Everything does. | |
| Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! If you have the budget for it I think you will find Pods make a big difference under the amp. My Melody is on a 150lb slab of granite, which in turn is on BDR Cones, and it has BDR Round Things screwed into both sides of the chassis, and the whole... | |
| Nova Power Cord Model (M101 silver) Review That's why I ask the question what power cables do you have so I know before I send the cables out. After I asked the question you withdrew the offer to audition.I see. Now I get the jest of it. | |
| Nova Power Cord Model (M101 silver) Review rh67, Sorry but you’re missing it. Let me be clear. Both Nova and Supernova are very high performance power cords. The freebie power cord was NOT used because that is how low you have to go for Supernova to sound better. The freebie was only used ... | |
| Electrical circuit "noise" Well said. Yours is the first I have seen of anyone objectively analyzing this down to the level of being able to detect devices on a circuit. Makes total sense. Probably many different things are going on all at once. AC current starts to flow, b... | |
| Help with turntable setup? According to your Clearaudio Owner's Manual your table came with the cartridge already set up and aligned. So you can forget about that. Did you level as instructed? Then that is done. Did you double-check VTF? That probably is correct but always ... | |
| EXTRA! EXTRA!! Millercarbon Proven Wrong!!! Read all about it! EXTRA! EXTRA!! stuartk-I realize you are intent upon (and have the fiscal means for) achieving the very best sound but would you be willing to suggest a "lower tier" of somewhat less expensive tweaks? You mean like $30 Nobsound instead of $300 Pods? DIY cable el... | |
| Help with turntable setup? In-person totally unnecessary. Just not that hard. Happy to talk you through it. How is it set up now or who set it up to begin with? | |
| EXTRA! EXTRA!! Millercarbon Proven Wrong!!! Read all about it! EXTRA! EXTRA!! Frank,One demo Dana heard, one of the QoS TDF coils was disconnected from each speaker. He was like, What the??! 😂😍😁 Just one per. There's like 3 per still there. Not to mention all the other, er, stuff. 😍All thanks to Krissy and her Tetrault magi... | |
| Electrical circuit "noise" Is it primarily back EMF you are analyzing? Or something else? It is easy to imagine how something like an electric motor could generate a signal that could be a sign of coming failure. Brushes on an armature for example might wear and arc and thi... | |
| Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! My review mentions something similar. A lot of familiar music has bits I was looking forward, expecting a certain sound, only to be underwhelmed. That could account for your cold feeling. Took a while to realize the expected sound was all added ha... |
